Red poinsettia Kanzashi Christmas or holiday hairband headband

*Tsumami kanzashi translates to "folded fabric hair ornament". In this Japanese technique, small squares of fabric are folded to create beautiful accessories. I use vintage kimono fabrics to create these pieces, giving the fabric a new use and new life when it may have been unable to be used for kimono or larger accessories. I personally starch, cut and fold all the silk used for my kanzashi. *

This beautiful hair band would make a wonderful accessory for any holiday celebration. The poinsettia has long been a Christmas tradition. It is also the December birth flower. This poinsettia was made from 10 pieces of deep red silk and 4 pieces of green silk. The center was created out of a yellow colored, faux jewel.

The flower is made in the tradition of Tsumami kanzashi but is also sewn together making this clip less prone to damage. The silk petals are glued onto felt and then glued onto the hairband.

A flexible, metal band is covered with vintage, deep red kimono silk to create the headband. The fabric is sewn onto the metal band. The interior metal band is very flexible, making this head band very comfortable to wear. It is also difficult to break, unlike plastic headbands.

Please note that hair accessories have small parts and can be choking hazards for young children and infants.

This item is created of silk. Please prevent it from getting wet and store it away from direct sunlight and moisture.

*These headbands will be shipped in a box to prevent them from getting crushed. As always, shipping charge overages greater than $1.00 will be refunded*

I believe that the pictures show a good representation of the fabric colors however, please remember that colors may look different on your monitor.
